COPY of Report and List of the Passengers taken on board the Brig Demerara of Prospect whereof J. C. Blanchard is Master, burthen 192 tons, and --/95ths of a ton, bound from the Port of Galway for Boston.

Columns represent: name, age, sex, occupation, trade or profession, country to which they severally belong, country of which they intend to become inhabitants. All the passengers were from Ireland, and all intended to become inhabitants of the United States, so the final two columns have been eliminated.
